of $5,000 goal

The Women Activists Incubator Retreat is for female activists to recharge and reinvigorate in the company of other women who are out on the front lines. This retreat is offered free-of-charge to women activists and is inclusive of trans and gender non-conforming people . Our intention is to provide inspiration, rest, and retreat for women who are activists in movements from anti-racism to climate change and to cultivate a space for connecting and collaborating.

You heard right! This retreat is offered free-of-charge to women activists thanks to individual and organizational sponsors like you!

Patricia Fero and Lauren Tatarsky have organized this 3-day retreat to provide support for women who are devoting their lives to organizing and activism. These are women who are championing various causes that require powerful action. The retreat will provide a space for connecting, inspiring, and activating the work that the attendees are already doing. We will address the personal challenges that arise from this work and support each woman in the continued development of skills to stay committed and fulfilled. We will also focus on strategies and ways to increase effectiveness of their action.

Those of us who see the dire situation we are in often feel helpless and overwhelmed at the events unfolding in our country and the world. Many of us have busy schedules and want to do more, but are not sure of the best use of our time and resources. Because our freedoms are being attacked at every front, donating in this way to women leaders who are acting in various movements, means that your contribution is expanded exponentially.

Donors,
We just returned from our retreat weekend. It was a truly powerful, supportive, transformative, and encouraging gathering. Before completing the retreat, our participants wrote letters to all of you, thanking your for making the retreat possible and sharing with you the impact of the experience. Unfortunately, sharing the pdf of these letters through gofundme is not an available option, so please email us to get a copy of the letters: inspiredlifecounselinga2@gmail.com. We'd love to share them with you.

We hope you enjoy their words and that you are filled by the gratitude and appreciation from this powerful group of women. We could not have done this without the generosity of each and every one of you. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of women working for justice and positive change every day.
Sincerely,
Pat and Lauren (co-facilitators)
